Clark didn't mean what he said...

[virginie]

That's my opinion but at the beginning when Lana came back Clark was like ok she's not gonna stay so kissing is not making it official and when Lana was spoken to Clark about their realtionship, at the daily planet, Lana said that now they can be together because she's his equal and at that moment Clark was scared because he didn't wanted to be officially with her but he was stock there and he was not able to get out of it so he maybe said everything he meant in the past and everything lana wanted to hear but just LOOK AT HIS FACE he was scared and he didn't wanted to be with her anymore... He add Lois in his mind:) If he was really in love with her he wouldn't have kiss her like that he would have jump on her like in wrath in season 7 in the barn... but that was nothing like that...

That makes me Hope for the Clois relationship and when Lois will come back it will just jump in Clark face that he is really in love with her!!!

I don't know if someone else think that but.... Let me know what you think!!!

[ClanaDestinyObsession]

it was very genuine to me. I don't see that at all.

Oh my goodness. :rolleyes: Do we also just sweep what Clark said about wanting to be with Lana and saving the world under the rug, too? What about what he says in the trailer. "I'm going to do everything I can for us to be together." I don't think I can have these arguments anymore. Best of luck with this thread.

[Sunny8]

I think he meant what he said. He is very trusting and he probably believes that this actually will work. Poor naive thing. He is even more naive than Lana used to be.

[paolinki25]

Well, this is Clark. He has the emotional maturity of a 14 year old, so he has no idea wtf he wants when it comes to romance.

[Sunny8]

. "I'm going to do everything I can for us to be together."

Wasn't that a voice over in the trailer for 'Requiem'? Don't get your hopes up because you know how misleading those trailer's can be.

[virginie]

Well, this is Clark. He has the emotional maturity of a 14 year old, so he has no idea wtf he wants when it comes to romance.
ya i agree!!! :lol:

[susangail]

He really seemed conflicted.

[Rhaspodel]

Have you seen them looking at each other with those eyes not saying a word and let their emotions speak for themselves. If so, he means every letter of it.

[Clana4Life]

Have you seen them looking at each other with those eyes not saying a word and let their emotions speak for themselves. If so, he means every letter of it.

Yeah, that's why I said I could not argue this anymore. If we start speaking for the characters, we might as well write our own show. If the words coming out of their mouths are no longer what they mean, then we don't need a show, because we'll have about 1,000 interpretations of what Clark was really saying we he said he loved Lana. What he really meant was that he loved the idea that she loved him. To each his own, but if when the characters say something and the writers even back it up by saying we are going to do x,y,z with this couple and fans still say, "No, but what he really meant was..." What can you do?

[Kevin24]

He did seem conflicted and less open to the idea but that could have been because of her having powers. He kept talking about what could go wrong with her having powers. He mentioned it so much and seemed against the idea of battling the world together that Lana's initial reaction was that he didn't want to be with her.

Clark then goes on to say that he does and it's like a dream but dreams aren't real or something like that. I think wants to give them another chance. I agree with you that it was more Lana pursing then him.

I think he meant what he said though.

[smallvillerocks45]

I also noticed the hesitation in Clark's expression- after all that he and Lana have been through, to start over again was a big step... but he does love her and I believe he meant every word. He's not sure if it's going to work out, but he's going to try Lana's method of living in the present and whatever happens, happens.

[suzieQ]

Have you seen them looking at each other with those eyes not saying a word and let their emotions speak for themselves. If so, he means every letter of it.

I LOVE this! Clark and Lana speak volumes with their eyes! No words needed!

I don't think Clark was confused for a second.....I think he was surprised that Lana was talking about being "together" and he immediately responded when she pulled back....NO HESITATION. AND .......let me make this clear....NO ONE ELSE was on Clark's mind! Period!

[Alania]

and everything lana wanted to hear but just LOOK AT HIS FACE he was scared and he didn't wanted to be with her anymore... He add Lois in his mind:) If he was really in love with her he wouldn't have kiss her like that he would have jump on her like in wrath in season 7 in the barn... but that was nothing like that...

!!!

Oh he really meant it! He didn't seem scared at all, that was a very passionate kiss and it was written all over his face: "Lois who? Lana is the only one!" He just didn't jump on her like in wrath because the spot was too "public".
Virginie, i'm a mad Lois Lane fan, much more than a Clois shipper and i don't mind Lana/Clana anymore, i lost all my strengh after last week and the only thing i ask of them now is to spare Lois Lane character from more pain and negligency, the last thing i want is her hooking up with Clark Kent. Clark needs to be alone, he needs sometime to himself, to focus on his role as a hero. He needs to hang out more often with Ollie and the Justice League and leave Lois alone. From the bottom of my cloiser heart, i mean that.

[Iluvgreen]

I don't know what to think, but I HOPE you are right. Even though I kinda doubt it. I think Clark might be scared because he's not feelin the same way he always has for her. And he's trying to find it again. It kinda showed that when he was re watching the break up video. I don't know. He didn't feel it the way it used to, so he thought it was because he was angry with her. But now that everything got cleared up, he should feel the same. But he doesn't, so he's trying it. And I think that he will find out that he's not truely in love with her in the next episode, and then she can leave, and everything will be fine.

[marcella]

Well, this is Clark. He has the emotional maturity of a 14 year old, so he has no idea wtf he wants when it comes to romance.

Unfortunately you're right:(

[Tompouce]

He really seemed conflicted.
It is what I think too. At the beginning of the epi (the only thing good in it)he was telling to Chloe that Lana was holding him back. Anyway as I said in another topic yesterday, this epi is totally absurd. Nobody means what they say. Look at Chloe for exemple : last week, it was "let Lana behind you, don't hurt my cousin" and now that Clark has doubts she tells him "well, before taking a decision, talk to Lana"...Absolutely crazy:(

[superboyx]

unfortunately clark never lies, one of his principles, even though he has lied to lex -_-...

[moviefan2k4]

I think in that scene on the DP roof, Clark's main fear was Lana getting hurt or killed through using her powers. Clark is Kryptonian; his body can handle the stress of his powers, because he's not human. Lana, on the other hand, is very much human, and I suspect that no matter how much "alteration" Dr. Groll's experiment put her through, she'll probably have more than one weakness. It's happened before; anytime anyone else got Clark's abilities, it was short-lived because the adrenalin rush would either wear them out or drive them insane. It happened to Jonathan Kent, Eric Summers, and even Lana herself.

[BadaBingBadaBoomsday]

Why would he kiss her if he didn't mean it. i didn't see one hesitation, sorry.

[Mickey_Bickey]

I saw doubt all over his face and in his eyes. So much doubt that Lana herself called him out on it.

I think Clark is living in a sort of "dream" state and living in the past. He's conflicted a little with reality. Lana is the safe zone. It's what he knows. He wants to make it work because he's scared to embrace the unknown.

I believe that doubt is what is going to 'surface' next week, and all the greed for power that Lana is obssessed with is going to overshadow her love for Clark, and it's at that moment that Clark is going to realize that he can never really be with her.

It doesn't matter that they kissed. What matters was his expression and his hesitation to respond.

[Tompouce]

Michèle, exactly ! He was not passionate at all when he told her "it is what I dream for". Lana had forced him to tell it. He was not so sure. As I said, at the end, maybe it is coherent to see Clana once again to end because like this Clark will realize, he doesn't need a woman with powers to make his love life a good one...
CLARK, COMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMME BACK (this will be my slogan until next week, after requiem, I think things will become again normal, my brain will be connected as normally lol)

Yes, plus he added 'we both know dreams don't come true', and I think there's a lot more to that line than some viewers realize. He's living in the past and acting like it too. I just hope that we do see his eyes finally open next week. I feel that they will.

[pizzahead2490]

i dont know.... all i know is how i felt when i see and heard that :\

[Sunny8]

It is sad this this thread has to exist. I think people just cannot believe what Clark has become. We are just trying to find a way to redeem his character but, alas, only the writers can do that. How they'll do it, though, is beyond me. They did not seem to care that after Lana is gone Clark would still have to be here. This Lana5 Clark is totally different from the Clark that we all had been seeing since the beginning of this season. How are they going to bring him back? Or do they just not care since their precious Lana is going out with a bang? Poor SV!Clark. He never stood a chance with these writer's who are so obsessed themselves with Lana that they have no regard for the character of Clark/Superman to such an extent that she was placed even above him.

[LuckyLois]

To be honest with you I don't have a clue as to what Clark is thinking anymore. He needs to step up and stop being so wishy washy.

[MetropolisGirl4SV]

I felt betrayed in that last scene... the principal of Superman went out the drain.

Does Clark not understand that what Lana did was wrong...If he loves Lana Lang, he should feel hurt by what she did...instead he goes dreamy eyed and kisses her just stupid...

Does he wear a blindfold when it comes to Lana?

So true...:\

[pizzahead2490]

whenever lana is anywhere around clark all ethics fly away from him and he only obey what she says. this girl is poison for him and he doesnt even know it.

[zorasuperman]

clark doesnt know what he means
he says one thing and is a hypocrite
he said to chloe before lana is pulling me down or something like that
then he says this to her
horrible

[Tompouce]

Yes, I just want to see how it will end...After "power" I think we are prepared to the worst if Clark doesn't take the decision on his own..But I hope he will.
CLARK, COMMMMMMMMMMMMMME BACKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK:D

[Loisdragon]

I dont care anymore

[Alania]

^^^ITA

[bigblueplanet]

I dont care anymore

I share your sentiments.

If we start saying, "Why should I care?", it's the end of the show.

[skugers]

Hi. I think he ment what he said, for convenience. Given the circumstances (the power-suit, the fact that Lana knows his secret and that he already has feeling for her) it's the easy way out for him. I don't think he rationalized his news feeling too well. I mean he was on his way to (from the first 5-7 minutes of "Power") but all went blank when she presumed Lana was kidnapped.

[Wicked Lois]

He doenst like Lois. He kissed Lana cuz he loves her and he always will.

*sighs

[thehenry89]

We all know clark changes his mind like most people change their underwear. This week he'll be madly in love with lana and a few weeks later he'll be makin cow eyes at lois, and the week after that he'll be crowdin chloe's personal space :rolleyes:

[CLanaF23]

oh he meant it.

[Rinoa]

I think he meant what he said. The reason why he stopped of for 2sec was because he was afraid of what might happen to Lana with the new powers. He said so too and was afraid that something might go wrong because of it. He obviously loves her and has always loved her but he has always been afraid of her getting hurt too. I think Clark would be man enough to not lead her on if he didn't love her. He told Chloe too that it wasn't that easy getting over a person in the middle of the episode so it is obvious to me.

[zanaamen]

I dont know, but what I know is Clark lead her on this time

[All about Clark]

Clark then goes on to say that he does and it's like a dream but dreams aren't real or something like that. I think wants to give them another chance. I agree with you that it was more Lana pursing then him.

I think he meant what he said though.

I like what was said here. He clearly didn't believe Clana would work, but that doesn't mean he wasn't willing to try. I think his heart has been broken enough by Lana that he won't let her fully in. He said in the beginning of the ep that she left for a reason, and that's exactly what he expects her to do again. I think he's just enjoying the moment because he knows it won't last. And at some point, he has to say enough is enough.

Agreed, completely.
